Colors effect our body and mind very much. The purest and most
thoughtful minds are those, which love, colors the most.
Colors according to Vaastu Shastra play a vital role in bringing
balance to our minds as well as bodies and to stimulate our
energy. Therefore colors in a Home, Office, Factory, Shop should
be coordinated with the colors of respective planets and
elements associated with different directions.
This will enhance
the energy flow around every individual in the related area.
Here are some guidelines on particular colors, which will help
you to choose the right Vaastu colors for every room.
Bed room: Light colors are suitable for bed rooms. Pink, blue,
green, gray and lavender in their lighter shades keep the rooms
tranquil and induce good sleep. Pink or cream colored tiles or
marble are good for flooring.
Kitchen: Kitchen must have some tinge of red in it depicting
fire. It can be utensils, or any other items. White or blue are
suitable for walls and flooring
Guest room: For active and pleasant atmosphere prefer yellow,
green, blue, orange or lavender in their lighter shades
Study room: To improve concentration and for pleasantness opt
for green, blue, light purple which also improve memory
Children's room: Bright colors are suitable for baby rooms be it
pink, blue, yellow orange or purple
Bath room: White, light gray, pink or any pastel shade is
suitable.
Green drives away anxiety, blue cures insomnia, red solves your
over weight problem, orange improves your appetite, pink
relieves from tension and yellow improves memory. Some colors
add zest to life and give positive attitude where as some colors
act the opposite way.
Do not use bright colors on walls facing South and West windows
and doors, as they reflect light and cause glare. Keep those
doors and windows closed during day time so that the bright rays
do not reflect in the room.
If a room has poor daylight, it should be painted in light color
and if a room gets good amount of natural light throughout the
day. If a room has only a North window, which admits cold light,
we should not use blue on the walls. If a room gets much direct
sunlight, it is not advisable to paint the walls yellow or
peach. It is nearly better to have ceilings white and the
ceiling temperature should be less than the human body
temperature.
